Mika, you're really good at reminding me what I was pissed about a few years ago

i’ve been wearing/playing with makeup since i was a child and not once have i had fuzzies, glass or metal in any products and i can say confidently that if it ever happened i would get an immediate refund and not a pity party 💀

Regarding her dropping Koze and putting it under the Jaclyn Roxanne umbrella: Why couldn't she just do that from the beginning? Is it some sort of tax loophole to have every single thing under a different business?

I wear a lot of sterling silver jewelry but almost all of my pieces were under $20-30, mostly bought from Etsy. Sterling silver will inevitably tarnish eventually, but all of mine have taken months to notice any difference, and I frequently wear them to shower and wash my hands. The fact that Jaclyn not only made the ridiculous claim that hers wouldn't tarnish, but that they tarnished THAT FAST, is wild lmao. It's not even expensive to make silver jewelry that takes a while to tarnish.

Jaclyn Hill keeps talking about wanting to be a business woman but all her business practices have been unethical or inadequate. She wants to be CEO and a creative producer but she doesn't want to put in the work. Like, I don't know anyone else that keeps screwing over their fans and still has their undying loyalty. At this point, I have lost all sympathy for Jaclyn Hill fans. They're asking to be scammed if they keep supporting her when she hasn't even earned back anyone's trust yet.

Thats whats interesting in her, that she REALLY loves the title of CEO and Business owner but what she excels at is the creative director area(for makeup). You can hate her but still admit that she does have an eye for colors thats so rare; that's one criticisms that no one ever have for her launches that all shades are ALWAYS complementary and works so well together and separated. The fact some people (e.g. Samantha Ravendale(?)) still searching for dubes of her lipsticks shades and use some even after the mess because they were THAT good of shades.

when you mentioned the cost of your glasses I had a whole moment because I FEEL YOUR PAIN. I also have a ridiculous astigmatism+ glasses prescription, and my glasses cost 600+ with the bulk of that being lenses because I have to get the funky compact material lenses for my ridiculous prescription. I don't know if yall got costco or if it'd be cheaper for you, but it's funny (sad) that in my experience, I can get my prescription done at costo with no insurance coverage for $160. But if I go anywhere that accepts my insurance, it's $500-600 after insurance??? It's also a bummer that the online glasses shops like Zenni can't/don't do extreme prescriptions like mine, last I checked. All this to say, I hate when I'm due for new glasses and I hate that they're so expensive. Also I hate that optical insurance is garbage.
